SHIELDING A CRIMINAL.

In today's issue is printed an
other lnstallment Of the revelations
on the KissaDe case, and an inter
view given In San Francisco by
General Darr. the man who has
been mainly instrumental in run
ming to cover ole of the greatest
criminals that has ever been known
il the United States. Readers of
today's APPEAL viii no doubt be
aStonIshed IT, learn that In San
Francisco the very men who ought
to he bringing this man tn Justice
are making desperate fight to
save him. 1t is "a digrace to the
name Of Justice, that man who
de- reratelv binws up steamboats,,
Iii ling scores nf men. women and
children. for the simple object Of
gain. should be now at large.
liz is claimed that SINCE Kissane
has made respectable connections
and Is now wealthy that no good
object can be served in bringing
him to justice. Kissane is not
repentant criminal. He did not
abandon his past life and do good,
like Jean Vatican of Hugo's mas
terpiece. but now, when he Is worth
q million, refuses to make re~tltu
ton to the people whom he has
ROBBED.
Placed in a position where he
needed money he would again en-
bark in a career of murder, robbery,
forgery. counterfeiting and arson.
Through this mans cool deviltries
and deliberate plots. it is estimated
that at least one hundred people
have met their deaths. There
seemed to be no form of rascality
aud crime that he did not engage
in, and yet when his career of
crime is today the leading topic of
conversation in California the San
Francisco papers d. not print
line regarding 1t. Wealth, official
power and the press Of a great
State seem at the present time to
be learued together to protect this
red-hauded rascal from exposure,
because he is in some remote
way connected with wealthy iami-
lies in San Francesca. If these
people are honest they ought tn
assist In Kidding the community of
such criminal.
The families in The East, whose
mem hers were Killed IN the Martha
Was hinptan aud osher steam boat
horrors, also have their rights, and
the blood of those murdered people
today cries for yeneeance.
There Is no way In which the
ends of justice can be subserved,
except b, the imprisonment for life
or hanging of this scouuurei deS-
pite his money aud connections.
If the press If San Francisco
have any respect for their profeS-
sion left they will no longer tie ac-
cessory to the mans crimes by as
sistlug III their concealment.
